Last night we had our candlelight service at church. I was honored to be a part of it and got to sing. In fact, I’d planned on maybe singing a song for you guys, but neither my computer nor iPad was cooperating. Now, I don’t have nearly the voice or talent of the artists I’ve been sharing with you guys over the last few weeks, but it would’ve been heartfelt…
Having said that…I heard a folk story for the first time that I’d never heard before. It was about dreams…what you’d wanted to be…and how sometimes it differs from God’s plan for you. He DOES have some AMAZING plans for our lives… It’s kind of funny how we fight them sometimes, but as long as we love…and have a little faith…he’ll find a way to make us into what he’s planned for us all along. His plan is always so much bigger and better than what we come up with. 🙂
After hearing the story, which, incidentally reminded me of my friend Mae and her Mythical Mondays…I thought I’d share it because it’s a great reminder… Never to lose hope or faith…and to trust HIM to make our lives into the dreams we never even knew we had!
Now there’s a longer, fancier version of this story…a 20-30 minute movie…but I decided that’s just way too long. Anyway, I hope you and yours appreciate this little Christmas message…
Enjoy today. I hope you spend it with the people you love, showing them just how much they mean… and that the next year is a happy and healthy one.
As usual…here is my final Christmas song for…the one I wanted to sing for you… I hope you love it as much as I did!
Can you imagine how scared Mary must have been? I think that’s part of the miracle, don’t you? I mean…if you think of that time, she was only about 14 or 15 years old. What a responsibility!
Merry Christmas!
Thank you, Kitt. A wonderful Christmas tribute for all of to enjoy.

That was a lovely song Kitt. I’m not a religious person…. but I did go to Sunday School (many moons ago) … and then went my own path ..but I truly understand those who have their belief which keeps them strong and also guides them, whatever religion that may be. x

I don’t particularly consider myself to be “religious” either…but as you said, I do have a faith that sustains me & is very deeply wound through my heart.
And I think everyone has their own path… It won’t always be the same as mine…but that is what makes life so interesting!
